I know, and I am looking forward to that finally happening.

Basically, no one can do anything to Norman until then, and it just doesn't make any sense that no one calls attention to the body count at this point.

It's like no one in the 616 has a cell phone camera or youtube or a cerebral cortex.

I know I'm questioning fictional characters in a make-believe situation, but I read the first 2 Frontline minis (unfortunately) and they've set Urich and company up as investigative journalists. There's so much collateral damage it seems like at this point you'd have to have a double-sized paper to print it all.

They've shown that Norman is effective at using the media, and also shown that he is intimidating and threatening journalists. How long did it take Woodward and Bernstein to finally get to the bottom of Watergate? 2 years or so, and Norman is a lot worse than Nixon.

Different era, you weren't even around!

Surely you might have just an inkling of the way media has evolved since then? Maybe not.

I've seen All The President's Men!

Media has evolved, but I don't see how that would help bring Norman down, are they going to Twitter him to death?

Norman has managed to control any media problems, he diffused Clint Barton's accusations, he got rid of security footage showing him as the Goblin slaughtering people, and painted Doc Samson as a bad guy.

He is smart, and it'll take more than a few youtube clips to topple him.
